In partnership with The Writers' Centre in Calgary, Alberta, 'Start Your Story Here' is a blog dedicated to writing advice, writing in education, and current events in the literary world.

This project is still in it's infancy: the goal, after building a platform, is to create a unified place for content and creative writers who want to improve the style, structure, and content of their writing.
